Allow shortcode in the author bio textarea

It a matter of using do_shortcode in your author.php template file (or wherever applies). This function has to be “echoed”. And instead of using the_author_meta (which echo‘s the result), use get_the_author_meta.

<?php echo do_shortcode( get_the_author_meta( 'description' ) ); ?>
